Meteorological summer already ended just over a week ago, and astronomical summer is about to end in two weeks, but I still made it in time to take photographs of the summer installation at the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside MGM Resorts’ Bellagio Resort & Casino.

This is an attraction on the Las Vegas Strip that I always recommend checking out because it’s free and low-commitment, so when my friends come to visit Las Vegas and we are in the general area of the central Strip, I always encourage them to stop by. Because of that, I’d seen this installation in-person a handful of times already, but I didn’t have my point-and-shoot camera with me during any of those previous trips. I didn’t want to miss my streak of sharing pictures of the seasonal installations on my blog though, so earlier today, I walked over to the Bellagio for one final look at all the animals.

The Conservatory is scheduled to enter its dark days starting from this coming Sunday, so you only have about half a week left to see this in person.

Hello, toe beans.

Here is a bonus floral arrangement set up in front of Harvest, a restaurant deeper into the resort near the pool area.

If you liked these photographs and want to see more from previous installations, I also have these past blog posts (in reverse chronological order): “Springtime Symphony: Music In Motion,” “Lunar New Year 2026: Year of the Horse,” “All Aboard for Holiday Bells and Whistles,” “Glam Menagerie: Surrealist Summer,” “The Birds and the B’s,” and “Lunar New Year 2025: Year of the Snake.”
